⚠️ Read this before you buy
This shirt has two real flaws, and the price reflects them. Marked cracking on the Fly Emirates sponsor print (photo 6) and a small hole on the front, below the sponsor (photo 7). This is a shirt to wear, not a display piece — which is why it is €59.99 instead of double that.

Good condition, adjusted price
Let us be clear about what works and what does not. What works: the black has stayed deep, with no fading and no underarm halos. The three red shoulder stripes are vivid, the embroidered crest with its gold star is flawless, the Italian flag on the chest is crisp, and the Champions League, RESPECT and 7-titles badges are all in place. The white ROBINHO No.70 nameset is intact. What does not: the Fly Emirates sponsor is clearly cracked (photo 6) and there is a small hole in the knit on the front (photo 7).

100% AUTHENTIC
✦ Authenticity guaranteed for life
The flaws change nothing about authenticity: this item is checked by hand in my authentication workshop. If an item bought from me is ever identified as a unofficial piece, I refund it in full. Guarantee with no expiry date.
- adidas label photographed (photo 4): reference X23707 and production date 03/12. March 2012, the manufacturing run for the 2012-2013 range — the two line up
- 7 Champions League titles badge on the sleeve: the grey shield stamped with the number 7, reserved for clubs with five wins or more. Milan wear it above the RESPECT band
- The Italian flag on the chest is an applied fabric patch, with a distressed effect printed into the material and a red topstitched border. Unofficial pieces print it flat onto the shirt
- Real photos of the exact shirt you receive, flaws included — full method in my authentication guide
🛠️ Workshop note — Look at the flag pocket in photo 2: adidas stitched on a unofficial flapped chest pocket, with the logo embroidered on it, and set the aged Italian tricolour inside. This is not decoration in the flat sense, it is an independent piece of fabric with its own seams. No reproduction goes that far: they print the whole thing as one block.
📖 Milan in black, and Robinho's last dance
An all-black third for a red and black club, with an Italian flag stitched on the chest: adidas made this one of the most identifiable modern-era kits at San Siro.
🏟️ 2012-2013 — back in the Champions League. Milan reach the last 16 and beat Barcelona 2-0 in the first leg before going out in the return. The starball on the sleeve belongs to that campaign.
🇧🇷 Robinho, the Brazilian 70. Signed in 2010 from Manchester City, he wore an unusual number that became his signature. 2012-2013 is his last full season in rossonero.
⭐ Seven European stars. The badge stitched on the sleeve recalls the club's seven European Cups — a total only Real Madrid have beaten.
🎨 A third Milan never repeated — all black, polo collar, unofficial tricolour pocket: adidas took a deliberate risk. That is what makes it a sought-after piece today, even with flaws.

❓ Frequently asked questions about this shirt
How big is the hole? Will it spread?
About two millimetres, in the knit on the front below the sponsor (photo 7). The edges are not frayed and it is not spreading. One invisible stitch closes it for good if you want.
Will the sponsor cracking get worse?
The Fly Emirates letters show a network of fine cracks in the white (photo 6), typical of prints from that era. Nothing is peeling. Wash inside out at 30 °C to keep it stable.
Why this price compared to the others?
Because the two flaws are real and I price them in. The same shirt without the hole and the cracking would sell around €110-120. Here you pay for the condition, not the illusion.
Is this shirt authentic?
Yes, without reservation. adidas label X23707 dated 03/12, embroidered crest with gold star, official UEFA patches including the 7-titles badge, and a stitched tricolour pocket. Guaranteed for life.
How does this M fit?
Measured flat: 49 cm pit to pit and 71 cm long. A classic adidas M, slightly fitted. If you wear an M and like it roomy, go up a size.
How much is shipping and how long does it take?
Dispatched within 48 working hours with tracked Colissimo delivery (€5.99 in mainland France, free from €99.99). Details on my shipping FAQ. Returns accepted within 14 days if unworn.
